Global Famine: My items can be automatically upgraded.

In this world, due to the scarcity of resources, materials and supplies are relatively precious.

Therefore, when inheriting and developing technology, we follow one principle: substitutability.

Because of the use of crystal source core, many components can be converted and used on different equipment.

Such as the engine.

There are only a few sizes and the power is definitely sufficient. The only difference is that the output shafts are of different lengths.

Therefore, Shen Bei wanted to avoid purchasing too frequently or too much at the research institute.

Shen Bei planned to try his luck at a second-hand store.

The store is not far away.

It took Shen Bei a few minutes to reach the door.

Any second-hand civilian items except guns can be seen here.

Even... there are mineral water bottles.

This is something that everyone must have.

If a Titan passes through a city, there are many people who go to the city ruins to dig for this thing.

After entering, Shen Bei took a walk around inside.

Sure enough, we found many parts required for Jingyuan's reorganization equipment.

The 008 engine module is a small engine.

"Boss, how much does this cost?"

"I don't want to rip you off." The boss yawned behind the counter. "That thing is scrapped. If you're confident in your repair skills, take it for 100 yuan."

Shen Bei didn't hesitate at all.

Regardless of whether it is good or bad, this thing is an engine mod.

Even a bad thing can be upgraded to a good one!

Otherwise, when he traveled through time, Xiaolong gave him a broken pistol, so how did he upgrade it to a good one?

"wanted."

Shen Bei threw over 100 crystal source cores.

The boss was obviously stunned, thinking that this deal could not be done, and slapped his thigh: "If you fix it, I can add 10 yuan to buy it back!"

What a profiteer!

A usable engine module, even if it is second-hand, will cost at least 200 yuan.

Afterwards, Shen Bei found the 016 packaging module, 089 pressurization module, 170 cooling module and other parts in a pile of junk.

Putting it all together, the total cost was more than 1000 yuan.

He almost emptied Shen Bei's wallet.

Shen Bei looked at the less than twenty crystal source cores in the bag and felt distressed for a while.

These people work hard to earn money, but spend it all in the blink of an eye.

However, Shen Bei didn't feel uncomfortable for long. He felt much better when he thought about the people with special abilities.

If playing with technology is a bottomless pit of spending, then the psychics spending their crystal cores to upgrade is a black hole...

Shen Bei left the store carrying the parts.

Return to your residence.

Place the engine module in the crystal source reassembly equipment.

【Experience +1】

has experience!

This means that even bad engine modules are recognized by plug-ins!

Then put the packaging module and other components in.

Experience +1

Experience +1

……

Then look at the device information.

【Crystalline Recombination Equipment LV1: 5/5】

[A simplified Crystal Source Recombination Equipment toy with only the appearance of a device, but without any production functions. To produce Crystal Source Core Fragments, it lacks the five necessary internal parts numbered 001 Crushing Module, 008 Engine Module, 016 Packaging Module, 089 Pressurization Module, and 170 Cooling Module.]

"upgrade!"

The device shook slightly a few times, like a magic jar.

The information is also refreshed.

【Crystalline Recombination Equipment LV2: 0/20】

A simple and low-end crystal source recombination equipment with low production capacity, low efficiency, low pass rate and high energy consumption.

Although the text prompts indicate everywhere that this thing is a junk device.

But as long as it can be produced!

Later, we can gradually upgrade it to improve efficiency and pass rate.

As for how the parts thrown in are connected together and how they work, Shen Bei doesn't care.

All he wanted were the crystal source core fragments, which contained energy fragments that could increase the lethality!

Shen Bei did some research.

First, put a crystal source core into the power port of the engine module as a power material.

Shen Bei looked at it curiously. This engine module has a mechanical claw. After grabbing the crystal source core, a slender hollow alloy tube will extend from the inside, drill into the crystal source core, and extract the liquid inside as a power source.

“It’s a bit like a gas tank.”

Shen Bei smacked his lips.

Then throw a crystal source core into the input port of the crushing module.

Surprisingly... the device prompts that the input quantity is insufficient.

Shen Bei threw another one in.

Still not enough!

"No way? We still need to invest? How much can we produce?"

Shen Bei's face looked a little ugly, and he muttered to himself.

Keep investing.

Only after ten pieces were put in did the green light on the device light up, indicating that the insertion was complete.

Next, the device will operate autonomously.

Shen Bei just needs to wait patiently.

Just at this time.

Shen Bei heard the landlord below yelling, "Welcome Blue Rose to my apartment!"

Blue Rose!

Shen Bei immediately walked out of the room and locked the door.

This guy is definitely here to find me.

Shen Bei didn't plan to reveal the things in the house to anyone, so it would be better to go out early.

Went downstairs.

I just happened to see the landlord leading Blue Rose upstairs.

"Now that you're down, there's no need to go up."

The landlord greeted Shen Bei with a smile: "Looking for you."

Blue Rose still looked as aloof as ever, cold and unpredictable, like a giant walking ice sculpture.

She slowly raised her head, her blue eyes looking directly at Shen Bei, her tone without any warmth: "Tomorrow, gather and do the mission."

After saying these seven words, Blue Rose turned and left.

Just as she came quietly, without taking away any clouds.

The landlord bowed and sent her away.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he breathed a sigh of relief: "I was really worried that this woman would lose her temper and blow up my apartment."

"Your worries are unnecessary." Shen Bei said.

"why?"

"Would you step on an ant?"

The landlord uttered an "oh" and realized something, but he also said, "But if you really step on it, there's no resistance at all."

"So..." Shen Bei narrowed his eyes and said, "Weakness is the original sin."

For landlords, this is certainly true.

The same is true for Shen Bei.

Shen Bei dared to say "no" to Blue Rose's order.

Blood splattered on the spot was the least of the worries.

The fear is that you can neither live nor die.

It seems that every time Shen Bei kills someone, he gives the other person a quick death. Strictly speaking, Shen Bei is still a "good guy"

Return to the room.

The crystal source recombination equipment has completed production.

Also gain an experience point!

"Each time you produce something, you can gain one experience point?"

Shen Bei nodded calmly. The upgrade method was quite standard.

When he opened the discharge port, Shen Bei was stunned.

There were only crystal source core fragments less than the size of a fingernail inside.

"This output ratio...is frighteningly low!"

The corners of Shen Bei's eyes, mouth, and eyebrows all twitched.

Ten crystal source cores produced this amount of fragments.

According to the ratio of high explosive powder and fragments in cluster fire flying disc bombs.

It can only produce one bomb!

“The initial investment is huge, the pass rate is low, and it’s too expensive!”

Shen Bei almost vomited blood.

The hope of quickly upgrading the firepower frisbee was instantly shattered.

If this pace continues, countless amounts of money will be invested.

Shen Bei held his forehead helplessly.

Even if it hurts, you have to devote yourself to it.

You have to grit your teeth and commit!

We can only hope that after the Jingyuan reorganization equipment is upgraded, the pass rate will increase and the consumption ratio will become lower and lower.

Shen Bei carefully put away the crystal source core fragments.

Then pull out the Barrett's magazine.

One-handed bullet.

The orange bullets clattered onto the table.

Use a tool to pry open the annular groove.

Take out the explosive under the primer and the fire felt.

Pour out the propellant from the pilot hole.

Mix a certain proportion of crystal source core fragments, then fill the propellant back in and seal the cartridge case.

Shen Bei stared directly at the bullet.

Information pop-up:

[Rifle Bullet LV3: 0/20]

[Range +100, with the addition of Crystal Core Fragments, significantly increasing damage, armor penetration, and straight-line distance. If this bullet remains within the psychic's body, it will repel the Crystal Core Energy within them, causing a concussive effect.]

The information has changed!

A few more words of description!

In addition to greatly increasing various effects.

It also comes with a shock effect!

Although it must be stuck in the body of the mutant, the mutant will either be shot to death or have a strong physique and suffer a second hit from the bullet.

This is a bit mysterious.

The concussive effect is equivalent to the feeling of being hit on the head with a hammer, with a brief dizziness and loss of consciousness.

This is undoubtedly a great help to Shen Bei on the ever-changing battlefield.

Even if a shot doesn't kill the psychic, it can make him lose consciousness for a few seconds.

Whether running away or continuing to sniper, both are excellent choices.

Shen Bei thought about it and realized that the shells from the cluster fire disc did not have this effect.

"Could it be that only a level 3 bullet can activate this effect?"

Shen Bei doesn't know how to carve the patterns on the shells.

I haven't figured out the pattern of the bullets yet.

After so many days of practice, we can only guarantee that six out of ten bullets will be level three.

I don’t know how long it will take to produce level 5 bullets.

However, this time the bullets were loaded with crystal source core fragments, and their effect was immediate.

Shen Bei did not waste a minute and began to modify the bullets and gunpowder.

A full hour.

After Shen Bei used up all the crystal core fragments, he obtained ten bullets with shock effects.

"good."

Shen Bei pressed the bullets into the magazine individually and used them when necessary.

After all, at this stage, the crystal source core fragments are hard to come by.

It's all fed by money.

……

The next day.

Shen Bei put away his bag, put on his armor, and locked the door.

Leave the rental house and meet at the place designated by Blue Rose.

It's time to go out and make money.

I just don't know how dangerous this trip will be and how much the reward will be.

soon.

Other people kept appearing at the meeting place.

Everyone looked at Shen Bei in surprise.

An ordinary person carrying an antique sniper rifle is our teammate?

What a joke!
